3 RISK MANAGEMENT AND MALPRACTICE What every physician needs to know
4 OBJECTIVES Name 3-5 most common reasons for a medical malpractice claim Describe and compare negligence, types of error, and recklessness Explain 3-5 steps that should be taken to minimize risk for malpractice suit Discuss the emotional toll of litigation and personal and professional risks that result.
5 HISTORY Residents and fellows often unaware of behaviors that put them at greatest risk Unaware of the process once a claim has been made Unable to articulate levels of culpability Lack knowledge of emotional and professional toll
6 OPPORTUNITIES Reframe the relationship with risk management Implement a preemptive strategy Collaborate with your multi-disciplinary team Examine policies, procedure, and protocols often and utilize quality protected processes to improve
7 WHEN YOU ASK PATIENTS AND FAMILIES WHY THEY FILED A LAWSUIT, THEY SAY: The doctor didn t care about us The doctor didn t listen The doctor knew X and didn t Y He or she didn t tell us
8 MOCK TRIAL EXERCISE Actual case, real attorneys, residents played the defendant and the prosecution, and a program director played the expert witness. Exercise was sponsored by the legal firm who defends the hospital, the medical school, and the risk management department Almost 200 attended
9 THE CASE Delay of diagnosis and treatment of acute compartment syndrome, (4 days), resulting in permanent loss of mobility in right leg- 53 y/o active female patient. First year orthopedic resident, third year EM resident, and orthopedic attending. Multiple nurse witnesses.
10 SOME KEY FACTORS IN PLAY Supervision Communication Documentation Culture of joint accountability-those concerned said little and did not engage Case can be made key findings may have been minimized (ex. Pain the 5 th vital sign)
11 NOW LET S WATCH SOME EXCERPTS
12 DISCUSSION The experience from the residents perspective The attorney s insight Was it negligence, error, or recklessness? What could have been done differently? The emotional and personal toll
13 REACH REACTIONS FROM PARTICIPANTS AND OBSERVERS More powerful than Expected It felt real. It s not easy to decide guilt - many factors and players Didn t realize these cases often go on for years Didn t anticipate the scope of disruption emotionally or professionally Never thought about facing the plaintiff
14 NEXT STEPS How can you use what you ve learned here today in your own settings? Develop your own mock trial exercise Utilize student legal service attorneys Network with community partners to co- sponsor the event Abbreviated Lunch and learn exercise
